I have the following automaton. I am supposed to understand the use of empty transitions through it.
I think that the regular expression of this automaton is the following: 0* 1* 2*
I just want to know what this automaton lets us do? in other words what is the use of empty transitions in that case?
i think u want to know about difference between this..
and this
difference is first first automaton accept string of 0,1 and 2 of anything... while second automaton accepts string of 0,1 and 2 of...0 followed by 1,1 followed by 2.... ex. it accepts 012,001122,0012,0112 etc. it won't accept 102,201,0121,0120,0011221.
so empty transitions make it nice and easy...
